Treatment options for Choroidal Neovascular Membranes (CNVM) depend on the specific type and underlying cause. Consulting with an eye specialist (ophthalmologist) is crucial for a personalised treatment plan. Here are common approaches:
1. Anti-VEGF Medications: These are often used, especially for CNVM related to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). They reduce abnormal blood vessel growth and improve vision through injections.
2. Laser Therapy: Some CNVM types can be treated with laser therapy, like photodynamic therapy (PDT). It seals abnormal blood vessels and slows their growth.
3. Corticosteroids: Medications may be prescribed to reduce inflammation and fluid buildup in the retina.
4. Lifestyle Changes: For AMD-related CNVM, quitting smoking, maintaining a healthy antioxidant-rich diet, and protecting your eyes from UV light can slow progression.
5. Regular Follow-up: Ongoing monitoring is essential. Your ophthalmologist will determine the follow-up frequency based on your case.
Please note that treatment suitability and success vary. Only an eye specialist can determine the best plan for you. If you're dealing with CNVM, seek prompt medical attention for an evaluation and expert guidance.
